SAN Francisco, November 24th.-The

OF Adolph Sutro's Liberty statue on Mount
Olympus this morning came off as an

headed by the Presidio Band began the
ascent OF the mountain, which stands at
the head of Seventeenth street, a few hun
dred yards north of the Twin Peaks.
The statue, an imitation of Bartholdi's s
masterpiece in New York Harbor, is of
colossal size and faces the east, looking
down over the great city. 1t was designed
to typify the triumph of light over dark
ness. The principal figure is that of a
gracefully y-draped female, holding aloft in
hersleft hand the torch of liberty, and in
her right reversed sword, which she keeps
beyond the reach of the spirit of darkness,
re- presented by savage, who crouches
blinded, at her feet, striving to grasp the
sword. The light which will flame forth
from the hand of the goddess, will be seen
by vessels approaching the Golden Gate, and
also throughout a great portion of the CITY,
From the base of the statue is obtainable
one OF the loveliest and most varied pros
poets in the world. To the south extend
the mountains and valleys of San Mateo
county. In the east lie the mountains of
Alameda, the suburban towns that line the
eastern shore of the bay, while the bay and
the city itself lies at its feet Northward
rise the steep cliffs of Marin and the
nights of Tamalpais, and to the west
stretches the broad Pacific, a picture whose
fitting foreground is Golden Gate Park.
The donor of the statue, in order to Sc
cure the pride of the neighborhood in its
maintenance has placed If under the pro-
lection of the sehool-children. To-day, by
invitation, the pupils of the Sanohez-street
school assembled about the statue and were
given part on the programme. A large
crowd was present and listened very atten-
lively to the interesting exercises which
had been prepared for the occasion.

NEW YORK, November 24th.-The great
game of football between Harvard and
Yale to-day was witnessed by 10000 peo-
pie. 1t was splendid struggle, and ended
in a victory for Yale, the score being IL
8.
The huge audience was extremely en-
thusiastic, and the noise made by the veil
ing collegians, the alumni and the ladies
(who took apparently equal interest in the
contest) was frightful.
Everywhere punches ofribbon, streamers
and flags fiuttered. Yales blue predomi-

the Columbian, Princetonian, Union. Wes-
leyan and Pennsylvania colors went to
make up as bright and pretty a picture as
can be imagined.
Not only were the cheers of the contest
ants and their associates heard, but the
PrincetOnian and Columbian cries were
also sent forth. Columbia favored Harvard
while Princeton was inclined toward Yale.
When the game was concluded the crowd
swarmed all over the field in the widest
excitement, sweeping fences and ropes be-
fore them. The victorious PLAYERS were

Novel Decoration of a Church in Marys-
Vile.
tCopright, 1857. BY the California 4ssccaled Press,
MARYsvILLE, November 24th.-Thanks-
giving Day opened clear and frosty here.
The day is being generally observed. The
decorations in the Presbyterian Church are
novel, as well as appropriate to the occa-
sion. The idea was to make the display
representative of the earth's bounty at this
season. The pulpit, rostrum and choir are
laden with specimens of Northern Califor-
MAS productions-fruits, cereals, vegeta-
bles and flowers. On the gas-jets al the
sides and on the walls are limbs of persim-
mon trees with large specimens of fruit on
each branch. On tables at either side of
the rostrum are large floral pieces, and
around the pulpit are carefully arranged
boxes OF grapes, banks of turnips, carrots
and potatoes, all of unusually large dimen-
sions. Two large slices of watermelon are
on either side of an anchor about two feet
high, which is made of cauliflower and
radishes. To the left and right of the
watermelons are large pumpkins, and
around these piled in profusion oran ges of
the crop of 1869, apples of all kinds,
pears, ounces, popcorn, onions, peppers,
egg plants, and many other products of
the garden. The wooden columns, on
which are the gas-jets. are dressed with
wheat and barley in stalk. This is knotted
into position by some Egyptian corn. At
either side of these columns are stands of
flowers placed in vases made of water
melon-rinds. The general effect is very in
teresting and handsome.
